I just got the car running for the first time like a week ago, still not tuned, running pig rich. I need to go down a size on the air bleeds (Blow-thru turbo holley).



Well anyways,



I am just cruising down 152nd street, running only the wastegate spring (10psi), while watching the wideband as I put load on each gear.



A bright red Integra GS-R pulls up in my next lane, it has rims, "A" pillar gauges, nice and clean. Either way, he must've thought I was racing, when I would boost a couple of seconds at the time.



Then,



He actually Revved at me!! I am loving this... As right now my car appears like a 100% stock GSL-SE outside.



We both slow down to about 30, and approach the upcoming light that is turning yellow. Perfect. A standing start..



Light turns green, I give it 3/4 throttle, and short shift at only 5,000 RPM. By the time I switch into fourth gear, I must have had 8 car-lengths on him. I slow down once I hit about ninety, as his VTEC was screaming to catch up. He pulls up next to me, and has his eyes completely wide open. He says, "nice race, I 'll get you next time," and then makes a right turn.



OMG, this is so fun. The car is a pleasure to drive at 10PSI, fast as hell at 14PSI, and an freaking animal at 17PSI. I can't wait till it is fully tuned, so I can redline each gear, and REALLY embarrass some high-end cars.



Anyways, that was my 1st Turbo 1st Gen kill. I popped my cherry.

Cool.

WELL IF U CONSIDER IT A KILL.... CONGRATULATIONS BUT A TURBO VS A NA WILL NEVER BE A RACE ESPECIALLY IF ITS A 4 BANGER N/A...... BUT THATS MY 2 CENTS

Cool https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

What turbo/psi?

Huh?



There are plenty of NA 4 bagers that will run same times as Turbo cars https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

not really

nice kill.....

63-1 Turbo, I was only running the

Wastegate spring ~ 10 psi.

Yeah not really,



but what about DSM's. they can be quick (granted they dont blow up lol)

man thats freakin bad, good kill. i cant wait till i turbo my 1st gen.

Nice semi-kill, that's what I'd call it. It would be the same if I race my FB turbo against yours, but dude, well done still.

those honda people crack me up. Some honda guy with a turbo civic (not hatch) was asking my friend about my project. Like a dumb **** he told him some of what I have for it. Just my haltech and hks manifold. His question was "what does he need a haltech for?" And what car I was building. when he found out it was an fc Rx-7 he just spouted out with I'll beat him. Yet another honda fag that needs to be shown the light.

I doubt that it would be a fair race, especially if you're running High 8's..



But I guess that is your point.



My point is that a stupid ricer bit off more than he could chew.
